Between
Bugles
A Salt Water
Romance.
By MATTHEW WHITE, JR.
Copyright by Frank A. Munsey Co.
The dressing bugle had sounded some
time since, but Dorothy still stood
looking out over the sea. She was
thinking how unfortunate It was that
dinner on shipboard always robbed her
of a view of the sunset. She was a
good sailor and consequently had no
excuse for taking her meals on deck.
"Still, if this were the only thing I
had to worry over," she reflected, "I
might Indeed be a happy woman."
And this was why Dorothy Shaw
was a mystery to all her friends. She
refused to be happy, though rich.
"Try it yourselves," she would re
ply to their expressions of incredulity.
"Have so much money left you that
your every movement Is followed by
reporters. If you happen to order a
different paper on Fridny from the one
you bought on Thursday you are cer
tain that you will read in all of them
on Saturday that you have decided
to give a million to the campaign
fund."
She felt that she could trust no one.
By sorry experience she had learned
that wealth was a bait few could re
sist, and "How much does he or she
want now?" was her first thought on
the advances of every new friend she
made.
Finally in desperation she had taken
passage in a slow ship under an as
sumed name, but even so was beset
by the constant fear that some one
on board would have seen her picture
in the papers when her uncle left her
the fortune which was her nightmare.
That was an additional reason why
she liked to linger on deck after most
of her fellow passengers had gone
down to array themselves for dinner.
"Oh I"
The exclamation was forced from
her by a sudden gust of wind that took
her tarn on Its wings and blew It
straight across the gap of lower after
deck that Intervened on the Alicia be
tween the first and second cabins.
The next Instant she smiled and bare
ly refrained from applauding. A man
standing well forward on the deck had
stretched out his hand and caught the
truant bit of red worsted as it went
whizzing by him.
A half minute later and the two were
standing on the neutral territory of the
deck below, for Dorothy had descend
ed in order to meet him halfway In re
storing her property.
"I'm very much obliged," said she.
"Not at all," said the man.
Be was tall and straight and bad the
clear blue eyes that Dorothy preferred
above all others.
She was about to turn back when the
other exclaimed:
"Look; there's a whale I lie's just
spouted. He'll come up again in a min
ute, if you care to watch. See, where
my finger points."
Dorothy certainly did care to watch.
In all her crossings she bad never seen
a whale. Now she was rewarded with
a fine view of a large specimen.
As it happened, this one kept on in
the direction of the steamer for awhile,
and after each spout she felt she must
wait and see the next one. And then
her companion seemed to know a good
deal about the creatures, which he Im
parted in a voice which possessed for
Dorothy an Indefinable charm.
Voices were a sort of bobby with her.
She often declared that this was the
one point on which she wag not thor
oughly patriotic she could not bring
herself to admire the average American
accent
But this stranger's voice puzzled her.
He looked and dressed like one of her
countrymen, but be spoke with neither
the western bur, the southern twang,
the Boston affectation nor the New
York flatness.
She did not know until some weeks
later that he was English born, but
had come to the States as a young
fellow hoping for better opportunities
to make a living than bis mother coun
try afforded him. He was returning
to England to claim a sum of money
left him by an uncle.
The dinner buglo sounded, and the
man, as if reminded by its notes that
he belonged lu a different atmosphere
(the second cabin Is called to meals by
a plebeian bell), lifted his cap and
walked away.
For the remainder of the voyage
Sherwood Roberts hung over the back
rail to gaze into the swirl of waters
surging out from the twin screws and
curse the fate that had led to bis meet
ing this pretty woman on the present
trip Instead of on the one he expected
to take a few weeks later.
"I might as well be a thousand miles
away from her as In second cabin," he
muttered between clinched teeth. "Idiot
that I was for coming this way. And
to think that within ten days I could
lay a fortune at her feet And the con
ventions won't even permit that I send
her a note to say that this la positive
ly my last appearance In poverty. But
perhaps I'll meet hor in London."
lie never did, however, although he
haunted Hyde park and the fashion
able hotels after his claim to his un
cle's property had been established
and he had come into the possession of
that which enabled Mm to dregs three
times a day.
"I wonder now," be would sometimes
ask himself, "If I had put my pride In
my pocket and borrowed enough on my
expectations to come over first Instead
of second, would things have turned
out differently? She looked as If she
didn't mind so very much my having
detained her to talk about whales. I
wonder If'
But what was the use of wondering
anything about a woman be would
probably never see again?
So this Englishman who had lived
so long In the States that he could not'
keep away from them re-embarked for
his adopted country In a first cabin
deck room and tried to be happy In
spite of a handicap that ho couldn't
forget
During the first night out It came on
to blow great guns. Roberta lay In
his berth late, debating whether to get
up or not when suddenly something
shot through his open port and hit
him squarely In the face.
It was soft and red, with gold
threads running through it, and
"Great Scott!" ejaculated Roberts,
starting up In his berth. "Her tamP'
Surely there could not be two of
them at least, he hoped there couldn't
But how had it come Into his cabin?
It could not be possible that she
knew he was there and bad taken this
means of apprising him of her pres
ence? Why, she had scarcely spoken
half a dozen words to him in her life.
But the cap was hers unmistakably.
lie fondled it foolishly for a min
ute or two and then got up and pro
ceeded to dress with all speed, or at
least with as much Bpeed as was con
sistent with the rolling of the vessel.
All day he haunted the ladles' room
and the decks, almost deserted on ac
count of the storm, and had begun to
read the cards affixed beside each
stateroom door when he suddenly re
membered the foolishness of this plan
to find a woman whose name he did
not know.
"This Is simply maddening," he told
himself after a day of fine weather
and still no sight of the tarn's owner.
"At this rate she will escape me again."
Then ho bethought him of a brilliant
expedient
lie took a pen and wrote the follow
ing notice:
Found. A lady's red tarn, shot with
gold. Owner may have same by applying
at cabin 23 between bugles any evening.
This he affixed to the bulletin board
in the companlonway and that night
dressed a half hour before the first
bugle sounded so as to be In readiness
to receive company during the period
named.
But nobody appeared that evening
nor the next and now there were only
two days left on the voyage.
He had passed a half hour of Im
patient waiting In the stuffy state
room on the third day of the notice,
and, quite discouraged, threw open his
door to go to dinner, when he stepped
squarely into the person who had
emerged from her room Just opposite
In the narrow entryway.
"I beg your pardon," sold Roberts,
and then he fairly gasped as he real
ized that the other person was the
lady of the tarn.
"I have something of yours," he
blurted out "that red tarn yon lost
once before."
The girl's cheeks suddenly took on
the hue of the cap that hung over
Roberts' berth.
"Oh," she said, "was It your port I
flung it into? I didn't know. It start
ed to blow away again that first morn
ing, and I thought I was tossing It
into my own cabin."
"And you've been just across that
five foot space," Roberts rejoined,
"while I've been ransacking the ship
for you to restore the tarn," he has
tened to add. "Didn't you see the no
tice on the bulletin board?"
"No. This is the first I've been out
since the storm. It left me with a
nasty reminder of the shaking we all
received. I'm so glad to be on deck
again 1 Did you have a pleasant trip
on the other side?"
"Jolly fine," answered Roberts.
But he wasn't thinking of the other
side at all when be said it, but of the
woman he had lost and found again.
Unconsciously they bad walked to
that part of the deck where Dorothy
had been standing when the tarn blew
off on the voyage over.
"I suppose I must pin the cap in
tightly this time," she remarked. "Ton
won't bo there to catch It If It flies off
again." And she glanced over at the
second cabin.
lie looked up at the one she was
wearing.
"That's a very pretty tam," he ob
served irrelevantly. "X trust It is
skewered in tightly."
Whether she read his Inner mean
ing, she gave no token then, but sug
gested tiiat it was ntgb time they both
went d wn to dinner. The next night
was tho dance, and after the final two
step she reminded him that In the
morning there would be the bustle of
landing.
"And I haven't relieved you of that
tam yet" she added.
"I shall miss It very much," he re
plied. "And you won't need It now
the voyage Is over."
"Tes," bho said softly, her eyes fix
ed on Nantucket light toward which
they were swiftly cutting their way:
'1 suppose it has served its purpose,
but I don't want to lose it again.'"
Roberts knew she wasn't thinking ot
all the words Implied, but he was
quick enough to seize at the opening,
and well, before they faced the cus
toms otflcers on the pier he knew where
to take the tam.
But he always forgets to carry It
with him when be calls, and when
Dorothy one evening said "Tes" to a
certain question he asked her she add
ed, "This is a desperate step to take
to regain possession ot a little old red
tam-o'-shanter,'
